Redmond Minerals in Redmond, Utah, has more than 200,000 tons of rock salt to be distributed in 28 states, some of which have had shortages due to poor weather conditions. "The shortage in the Midwest and the Eastern states has created a little bit of a vacuum," team leader Doug Anderson said. "We've been contacted by a number of those states back in those areas ... wanting more product. The challenge for us is really being able to get it back to them."
